Just when I saw someone post again about "interacting for airdrops," my first reaction wasn't envy, but to ask myself: Am I participating in the product, or am I just using it as a tool to help the project run traffic... There are really only two flavors of anti-reward: either the rules change and you end up wasting your time, or you treat authorization and signing as just "the next step" and click around randomly, in the end losing not just opportunities but assets.
Now I try not to chase those tasks where the whole internet is rushing overnight. When I see developers talking excitedly about "modularization, DA layer" and users looking confused, I remind myself: if you don't understand, don't pretend to. Doing a couple fewer steps in interaction isn't a big deal, and don't make your wallet's exposed surface bigger. If you really want to try, just small amounts, use a separate wallet, revoke authorization if possible, and calculate the costs clearly. Anyway, I don't gamble on luck; I'd rather go slower.
